Morton's neuroma causes frequent forefoot pain, often in the third intermetatarsal space. Diagnosis relies on history and exam, with imaging for complex cases, and treatment usually involves conservative methods before considering surgery.

Area of Science:

  • Podiatric Medicine
  • Neurology
  • Surgical Pathology

Context:

  • Morton's neuroma is a common source of forefoot pain.
  • It specifically affects the common digital plantar nerves.
  • The third intermetatarsal space is the most frequent site.

Purpose:

  • To summarize the etiology, diagnosis, and management of Morton's neuroma.
  • To highlight the role of clinical evaluation and imaging.
  • To outline treatment strategies, from conservative to surgical.

Summary:

  • Morton's neuroma is a nerve compression syndrome causing forefoot pain.
  • Diagnosis is primarily clinical, supported by imaging for atypical presentations.
  • Most cases resolve with conservative treatment; surgery is reserved for refractory cases.

Impact:

  • Provides a concise overview for clinicians managing forefoot pain.
  • Emphasizes diagnostic criteria and treatment pathways.
  • Aids in understanding the conservative and surgical management options for Morton's neuroma.
